Skills I Want to Learn: Organic Practices, Permaculture/Biodynamics, Biodynamics practices and techniques
I'm really interested in self-sufficient, permaculture, or some way to live with animals and nature. In this modern era, we even don't know where the food we eat every day comes from. We just go to a supermarket, buying some packed foods and consume them, then throw away many plastic. I don't know how a farmer grow vegetables, picking/packing, transporting to the market. I don't know how to milk a cow, how to kill pigs, how many people are related to transport these products and determine the market price. I feel this is crazy. I want to know and experience how foods I consume every day are produced and come to the table. I often search how to start self-sufficient life, wondering how to do, and found the best way is to learn from people who realise the self-sufficient life. There're several work exchange sites to provide similar service to WWOOF like Helpx, Workaway, and I'm also interested in such services because cultural exchanges is also very attractive. However, my main purpose is to learn how to realise the self-sufficient life, permaculture or any sustainable way of life. WWOOF is the best work exchange sites to connect with the host.

We have a beautiful 40 acre horse agistment property, veggie garden & fruit trees and approx. 5 acres bush. 3 min drive to surf beach, bay beach & Inverloch town or 10 min drive to Wonthaggi, a larger town. Push bikes available. About 15 to 20 minutes to the beach and town by bike. We are very interested in living a sustainable lifestyle and hope that our WWOOFers are also interested in living sustainably and learning, and sharing knowledge of this. There are almost always wallabies and kangaroos at our farm and if you are lucky you may see echidnas, wombats & occasional koalas. Volunteering may include harvesting, fertilizing, pollinating, composting, mulching, hay carting, weeding, fencing, planting, food preservation, and other jobs as they become available.  Sometimes there is some work caring for horses: often all the work is in the garden and paddock maintenance, as the horses are mainly looked after by their owners. Accommodation for up to 3 in our home, although we usually prefer 2. Shared meals, cook together. We eat a healthy, sustainable diet.  Bron is vegan and while Ray eats most foods, many meals are vegan or vegetarian.  Vegetarians & vegans catered for.  No children, no smoking, all stays negotiable on application. Please let us know your available dates when you apply and the length of time that you would like to WWOOF here. (1 to 2 weeks preferred).

A great way of seeing rural parts of Australia and learn new things and hopefully met interesting characters. I love animals and have spent time on family farms growing up which I enjoyed. I’m an outdoor person and would like to see how others manage and live on the land using different techniques in growing and farming.

My friend introduced me to this volunteer activity. Even though I've been living in Melbourne for almost seven months, I haven't had many opportunities to experience Australia's beautiful nature so far. When I think about going back to my country, I feel I might regret not having had more experiences related to nature. That's why I decided to join this activity. I also want to build more connections. Right now, my connections are mainly my university friends and my host family. Although I'm happy with them, I'm still curious to meet people who live in different environment and learn from them.

I joined WWOOF because I’ve had friends that have done it and seems like a great way to meet new people and learn some new skills in the process. I’ve stayed in Sydney for the past few weeks and am now looking to explore the wilderness that Australia has to offer

Aside from the fact that I love digging in the dirt, I would love to get some hands on experience in farming, gardening, and caring for animals so that I can one day have my own farm to share all of these things I've learned with others.

I’m currently in TAS with no real plan… I think the purest way to experience a place is to live like the locals. I have a bit of savings saved up so I’m not in any real rush to make money - I wanted to take this opportunity while I’m young and without responsibilities to create experiences & participate in as many things of interest as possible. I’ve fallen in love with this place & it’s only been 3 days since I boarded from the ferry. I would love nothing more then to give back in some way, & me offering my time is the way I feel would be the most beneficial to everyone involved. I’m a very curious, enthusiastic person & I love to try my hand at anything I can - growing up I got some time on farms with my Aunty owning a cattle farm & my dad having some property that enabled us to have some pretty cool pets (chickens, sheep, horses & an alpaca). It’s been a long time since I’ve gotten to be amongst this kind of lifestyle & I miss it immensely.

I joined WWOOF because I want to experience a simpler and more grounded way of living, close to nature and people. Over the past few years, I’ve been learning how to take better care of myself, using natural and homemade alternatives, and being more mindful of what I consume — in a world where so many things are industrial and harmful to our health.
WWOOFing feels like a meaningful way to continue that journey, while learning new skills, discovering organic farming, and contributing to projects that share these values.
It’s also a unique opportunity for me to connect with local communities, improve my English, and live an enriching adventure during my gap year in Australia.
